Under the ocean lithosphere is relatively thin (about 100 km), and thicker under the continents (320 km). Beneath the lithosphere is the asthenosphere, plastic and partly

According to the annual study at Yale and Columbia universities, the Indian air pollution exceeds the degree of Chinese and is the most harmful in the world, ranking 132 th, the last place in the environmental rating.

For statistics on air scientists used satellite data. In India the harmful particles in the air five times the allowable safe level, a high concentration of which is the main cause of a wide range of respiratory diseases and even cancer.
